Well, two to be precise. The lovely Ms Y had asked me before I headed out to the Co-Op whether I could try to find some face flannels on Deptford Market next week. I said that I would but try the limited range of shops on the crest of Downham Way today. As it turned out the pharmacy had a vast array of different coloured face cloths, and after some deliberation on the phone plumped for the royal blue and jade options. As for the rest of the shop it was straightforward, although it seemed that Co-Op staff had been hiding the marmalade at the back of the shelf…

It was a quicker than normal shop for the lovely Mr J mainly because the edges of Amy were in Deptford and both shoppers and market stall holders had stayed at home. It was a fairly standard shop which I finished in record time, finding a ‘friend’ at the end.

Another visit to Crofton Park Railway Garden and another shed to move! We had practice of moving the first shed not long ago and now it was time to move the second shed.

A shed moving team formed and created a human chain to move all the items from inside the shed to the new shed location. It was then time to move the shed, which I didn't actually see but I did see the shed in its new position!

Other tasks that we tackled were clearing the leaves from the garden, moving the compost from one compost pile to the other and sweeping the woodchip.

Ticking everything off our list, it was soon time to head back to Glass Mill. Hopefully we'll be invited back to put up the new shed!

There are some ‘missions’ where it feels as though you are visiting an old friend - my first visit to Ms L was one of those! She has had to move to a flat that is more suited to the needs of her condition. Lots of the things from her old flat remained in boxes. Today’s visit was helping her go through some of those boxes. We found pottery she had made, family histories, lots of documents and a 1991 Wimbledon programme where she had ticked off the matches she’d seen including Jimmy Connors and Martina Navratilova.

47 runners and 28 volunteers helped to make Forster Memorial Park junior parkrun’s second birthday a resounding success! Here’s to the next year!

There was a three pronged attack on Lewisham litter this week. Armed with her litter picker, Gill took time out on her trip from Luton visiting relatives, to plog in Lewisham Park. Adi kept the paths and grass of Mayow Park in Sydenham litter free. Paul picked litter brought down by high waters on the Ravensbourne in Deptford’s Brookmill Park.
